Love Poem: Guns and Roses

Guns and Roses

Thirsty for laughter
Famished off smiles
Hungry for love
Yes this is me.
Deserted and abandoned
Left to waste.

Separate worlds
The love we shared
Wishes, dreams and aspirations
Greatly different and divergent........
Parallel and conflicting
Like guns and roses.

Reasons enough
For us to live our different worlds
To find harmony
And those that suit us best.......
In our separate worlds
Different thoughts and dreams.

No, it would not hold
Abuse and exploitation
Carelessness and impunity..........
Or so it seemed to me
As you carry your gun with you
I go with my rose.
